Qs: Lang relationships since 1900

Editor for this issue: Elaine Halleck <elainelinguistlist.org>

We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

I would appreciate any help with compiling the list of linguistic
relationships which have come to be recognized as valid since 1900
and which are more or less universally accepted, i.e., more exmaples
like Uto-Aztecan, Vietnamese-Monkhmer, Anatolian-IE, Sino-Tibetan,
Tlingit-Athapaskan, etc.
